    i doubt you can afford them. You have to have a minimum of $250k in your account at all times to qualify. Then and only then are you considered. Sorry

    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    I've had Meso V1 puddle lights for over a year and only problem is when you approach your truck at night in a parking lot, other truck drivers stop and stare when they come on and light up the sides of the truck. :devil: As usual these new ones will be better and brighter in pods. :D

    I've spoken to an even higher up Toyota engineer and it affects manuals as well. They just don't want to release that information and plummet the stock price.

    Just got off the phone with the CFO head engineer of development and logistics. I asked him about the manual as I forgot in our previous conversation. He stated that the manuals do not suffer from the transmission issue as the computer brain does not control the shift points. Rather what he said was, and I’ll do my best to put it into layman terms, The “puddle” light mod does cause an issue with the actual metal of the truck. He said that the way the manual transmission rests in the chassis is different than the auto in that it makes contact with the frame. There is an electrolysis effect because of the added wiring from “said” mod which causes premature frame rotting.

    This actually scared me more than the transmission shifting issue. Wow

    @MESO I went to buy a bunch of mods on your site but most of them are out of stock. Will you ever stock everything again?
